Yes you read that right that is EXACTLY how our thermometers went today. We started our day in the 70's I believe (ask my hubby-I was still asleep when he left for work). By the time the kidlets and I woke up it was 88 outside and only 10:30am!! Or at least that was when I finally turned the computer on. Our apartment was a toasty 85. We were on track for a VERY LONG and HOT day. I decided to wash our towels since all our pool towels were dirty or wet (not that they wouldn't dry but I hadn't had my morning coffee so I wasn't even thinking). By the time I was finally showered, and ready to go along with the kidlets, it was 90 degrees inside and 95 outside and only 11:15am!!! YIKES!!!
I had decided at that point that we were NOT eating at home and that we would go grab me my ICED coffee and then head directly to Target....I did do a slight detour to Lane Bryant (their A/C was HEAVENLY) to buy some shorts but ended up buying the wrong size so now I can't even wear them. Grrr.....then we were off to Target!! We grabbed lunch since Aid wanted oatmeal for breakfast and I didn't want to feed him that because HOT day+warm food=way to hot for oatmeal day. He then refused cereal so he didn't eat. He scarfed 3 (count them 1...2....3!!!) hot dogs and I didn't even care today....he was happy!! (normally this would NEVER happen). We did our errands and then hopped in my cool....err....I mean melting car and headed to Alexa's.
We hung out all afternoon there waiting for the Comcast dude to hook up her cable, phone and Internet. He came at the end of the time and he said it had been a day for him too. Her place was cooler than mine but the kiddo's weren't having it or rather Brookie wasn't. So she finally crashed and Aid was shortly behind her. Of course it was like 5:30pm. I got them in the car, couldn't drive because the steering wheel was hot, does this ever happen here??? and headed straight to DQ. I might buy stock in DQ because we have been going so frequently lately. Got some ice cream and went straight to the pool. Thank goodness we had swim appropriate clothes....sort of. Jumped in and stayed there for about 2 hours. When we were done we came home to a 99 degree apartment. So fun. Changed into dry clothes and went to an air conditioned restaurant for dinner. This heat is going to cost me a lot of money in food I think....
We tried to go chase a sunset but got there to late so that's on the agenda for tomorrow. At least it will be cool. Came home and tried to sleep. It's now officially 1am and I have to work at 6am. Our apartment is 88.4 degrees and hasn't dropped anything for the past 2 hours. I am suppose to sleep in this??? Oh well. Supposedly we are going to cool off a bit....I'll believe it when I see it!! Anyhoo, off to grab a bunch of wet wash clothes and hit the hay for a few hours anyhow. Hope everyone else is staying cool.
Oh and the high in Redmond was 110 degrees at 5:30 today. YIKES!!! Wonder what tomorrow has in store for us??!!!! Nighty night!!
